Having a Whale of a Good Time

Yesterday I was watching Wyland on PBS, he's well known for his marine murals which led me to my card today. I don't think I was even aware what inspired me till after I was done! I decided to try CCMC345. I knew that I wanted to use this paper from the Birthday Bash Collection and also wanted to add different colors that were not part of this collection. Once I knew the colors, I started thinking about what the focal point would be and then the Whale Sizzlit came to me so I used Whisper White Cardstock to die cut it with. It was a little too much white so I took my Sponge Dauber and started adding the colors that I had already decided on - Coastal Cabana and Night of Navy. I then added Smoky Slate. And then it hit me, I was being inspired by Wyland! So fun!!!
